A 6 pack to GO
Took Friday off and of course it rained and rained , the good news is the tiny window early in the morning without any .
Told my buddy with the boat I wanted /needed a half dozen or 8 at the most to restock my freezer .
Well we thought hit it at daylight and we got about 2 hours and we should handle the task at hand quite well .
Not starting out well is the theme of things , couldn't hardly get a bite and the graph full of big crappie and bait .
heck i even ketched a bass and a bream
We hit spots that "should" have produced keepers easily and quickly and when our time was running really low we only had 2 keeper fish in the box !
We changed plans and went to the north end to attack one of my condos in short muddy water, no dice there either .
short fish here and there yes ,but solid fish NO , so last chance time wise and the smell of rain coming fast ,we hit a spot we know often has solid fish on it .
sure enough I put 4 nice fish in the boat there and off we ran for the boat ramp . started sprinkling as we rolled out of there and left with my 6 pack to go ....
sometimes it is what it is ...
and as always ...
KABOOM is the word
p.s. and dropped off a coon out in the country , I trapped last night with my g sauce trick ,we had a hung jury , he was really lucky , he was going to get the death penalty and ended up with an early release and a VERY stern warning about No second chances with my chickens

Nice story, Ketchn, and even if you came up a little short on your crappie goal it was still an interesting day. Thanks as always for the ride along!

i think it done got all my neighbors livestock , 2 houses down used to have about a herd of fowl , quacking and chirping and clucking away, then all the sudden a few days or week ago it got all quiet from down there and the trouble at my place started a few days later . it hurt one of my "easter eggers" so bad she had to get put down and made into dinner . then it came back and got a toe or 2 off 2 other chickens .they can reach thru chicken wire and grab at them and man it makes me mad to see anything mess with my egg layers .Originally Posted by DockShootinJack
i was pushing for the death penalty as was mini kaboom ,they are her chicks we raised ,mom is the just take it far away , hung jury darnit

3 bags of 4 fillets is ok with me , i dont typically store more than about 3 to 4 weeks worth if possible , 12 or more fish lasts a long time and often get misplaced in the freezer in small bags., and to some degree it was actually about making a video anyway .
that turned out pretty ok i might just add

Very cool to come home with a mess. What kind of jighead/body is that, looks cool. Your Dobyns rod, do you cast to your target or jig?

the jig heads are from a discontinued line out of gander mountain ,some kinda "pro" crappie heads I think they called them, they were on sale for .25 a pack when they went out of business and I grabbed basically all of them out of the bin .
1/32 and 1/16 with a light collar and painted ,some yellow with red eyes , some black with yellow eyes , some white with black eyes .
the plastic is a 1.75 limits tackle split tail in what is often called "ketchn karrot " coloration.
now even though it mattered big , I failed to mention 5 out the 6 fish I kept hit that specific jig combo and of course about 30 lesser fish as well .
other colors managed a few here and there but for whatever the reason that color set up was a bite fast when it went down .
The Dobyns rod was it's first test run , I pitched with it a bit and vertically jigged some as well ,it is a pretty darn nice rod no doubt about it .
